Speech Sound

Famous quotes containing the words speech and/or sound:

—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

“America is a hurricane, and the only people who do not hear the sound are those fortunate if incredibly stupid and smug White Protestants who live in the center, in the serene eye of the big wind.”
